What’s New in Storyous

Write-offs of products and semi-product items Until now, if you needed to write off a finished dish or a prepared batch, such as spoiled goulash, burnt soup or a damaged cake, you had to write off each ingredient separately. Now, the whole process is much simpler. In Administration, under Inventory → Write-offs, you can now: Enter the name of a product or semi-product item directly into the table Immediately see which inventory items will be written off and in what quantities

EET is back on the table. The government has approved draft legislation for EET 2.0 and, according to the Ministry of Finance, the new system is expected to launch on January 1st 2027. For restaurants, cafés and bars, though, the politics matter less than the practical impact: what exactly is changing, and what will it mean for day-to-day operations? Key takeaways There will be no mandatory receipt printing. EET 2.0 does not introduce an obligation to issue and print receipts

In recent months, information has been emerging about the possible return of electronic sales records (EET) to the Czech Republic. The new government states in its program statement, for example: "From 2027, we will introduce EET 2.0, thereby ensuring a predictable and fair environment for entrepreneurs across all sectors, taking into account small businesses and occasional earnings, which the system will not apply to. The solution will be built on state-of-the-art systems an

Tipping is an essential part of the dining experience. For waiters, waitresses, and baristas, it often makes up 20–50% of their net income. Yet Czech legislation does not reflect this reality. The result? Confusion, uncertainty, and a grey zone that harms employees, businesses, and the state alike.
